OUTDOORS: Bulmers and Schultzes have it their way in Lewiston
Nuisance is a blessing for two local families

LEWISTON —
A pair of local teenagers are hoping their next local goose hunting trip is as fruitful as their very first last weekend.
Travis Bulmer, 14, of Gasport; and Travis Schultz, 14, of Newfane; teamed up with their enthusiastic fathers to shoot 16 geese on Saturday as the state’s Nuisance Control Season got underway in Region 9A.
“This was the first time both boys went goose hunting. We’ve hunted turkey together and bow hunted and fished,” said Travis Bulmer’s father, Brett Bulmer. “Both of the boys got deer this year as well.”
Brett said the Nuisance Control Season helps to control the local geese population. Too many remain in the area in the winter season and can cause damage to the environment.
“We caught 16 geese and gave two to the landowner. He told us, ‘You don’t even have to clean them. I’ll take them.’ ” Brett said. “I don’t do NASCAR or football. I’m into (baseball) because that’s what the (kids) want to do and Boys Scouts. We’ve got into kayaking. They don’t get along in a canoe, so we got the two oldest ones kayaks.”
Besides Travis, the Bulmers have three more children, all Royalton-Hartland School District students, Jessica, 13; Tanner, 8; and Shana 5.
Travis Schultz, a freshman at Newfane High School, said he’ll never forget this hunting trip.
“They flew over us in every direction. We hunted for a couple of hours and shot down quite a lot of them,” said Travis, who used his trusty 12-gauge 1,000 Remington.
“It was unbelievable and it was fun — and we did it all together,” he said. “I plan on doing that again — that’s for sure.”
